Overview

Integration with the new Delegated SAML Authentication library required the Web Proxy Portlet to be updated to httpclient 4.0-beta2. This integration involved significant refactoring of the Web Proxy Portlet's proxying implementation, as well as an update to its state persistence API. All work performed as part of the httpclient upgrade has been contributed to the trunk of the public project (currently available in the Jasig repository at https://www.ja-sig.org/svn/portlets/WebproxyPortlet/trunk).

While we anticipate eventually open-sourcing the new Shibboleth-enabling HttpManager implementation, this work will not be publicly available until the Delegated SAML library dependency is publicly available.

Modifying and Configuring the Web Proxy Portlet

The Delegated SAML Authentication library must be added as a dependency. To add this dependency, the following should be added as a dependency in the portlet's pom.xml file:

...

    <user-attribute>
        <description>idpPublicKeys</description>
        <name>idpPublicKeys</name>
    </user-attribute>

    <user-attribute>
        <description>samlAssertion</description>
        <name>samlAssertion</name>
    </user-attribute>

Modifying uPortal's Web Proxy Portlet CPD

To list Shibboleth as an authentication option in uPortal's administrative interface, add "SHIBBOLETH" as an option for the "PORTLET.edu.wisc.my.webproxy.webproxy.httpclient.sAuthType" parameter in uPortal's Web Proxy Portlet CPD. This file is located within uPortal at uportal-war/src/main/resources/edu/wisc/my/portlets/WebProxy/WebProxyPortlet.cpd.
